DR NORRIS'S DROPS, are a Certain Remedy for FEVERS, COLDS, INFLUENZA, and all Dis ease' that arise from obstructed perspiration. The Medicine here re commended to the Practitioner, and the Public, possesses qualities of the most mild and beneficial nature; it is composed of articles known to be the most anti putrescent, combined with the ingredients known to the profession, as the only certain antidote for Fevers of every descrip tion. When the disease is produced either from cold, obstruction, bad air, swampy and damp situations, or putrid miasma, whether malignant or epidemic, or by other causes, this medicine is certain in its operation and effects, it produces the most gentle and salutary perspiration, and by a specific quality, peculiar to itself, not only expels the disease, but restores and invigorates the system. These celebrated Drops have had the unbiassed testimonies to their invariable effects, of numbers of the Nobility, Gentry, and Medical Men of t hi s Ki ngdom, and the extensive demand for them j from the West Indies and America proves that in those countries they are held in equal estimation. The Genuine will have engraved on the Government Stamp, "Thomas Norris Moore." Sold Wholesale and Retail, in bottles at es. 9cl , I Is., and family bot tles at :295. each, by E.

Ilypochondriasts in all its varied forms, with a long catalogue of maladies, haunt the unhappy victims of this delusive and self-destroy mg passion. Thanks, however, to the divine art of healing, the suftbring invalid may obtain a safe and permanent restoration of his health by having recourse to LINLEY'S ANTISEPTIC DROPS. The emaciated constitution, and debilitated frame, arising from these causes, can be re-instated...the rclatced fibre and untoned nerve can be revived —and thus the important blessings of health once more secured. The causes themselves being w holly abandoned, persons need not despair, h owever inveterate and. protracted their maladies, the Proprietor being convinced, from long and patient perseverance in the use of remedies here advised, that his plan of treatment is both rational and scientific, founded upon sound pathological knowledge, and practical pharmaceutical investigation.

The first person of a Trinity, a Trinity, can be no mere THE God of the second, than the second of the first, or the third of both the other two. Had St. Paul ever heard of the reputed dictum of Christ, he would never have been guilty of his own. Accordingly, from the time this dictum has been deemed authentic by the Church, the God " co nomine," of the Apostle has fallen into desuetude, into obli vion.

The want of a work which should include all the " legends, traditions, and history" of that most romantic and remarkable por tion of the Rhine lying between Cologne and Mainz has been long felt by the European public. It is quite true that much has been written on these subjects, in various languages ; and that a great deal has been done towards elucidating them in several forms. In so far the subject is not a new one. But still it is not less true, that the wild and wondrous legends which appertain to each par ticular castle on that immortal river—the extraordinary traditions which attach themselves to almost every spot on its shores—the spirit-stirring histories connected with its cities and towns aed hamlets, through the long period when it was not alone th sole highway of central Europe, but. the centre of European civili°ation itself, have never been gathered together as yet, nor given zn any thing like an entire form to the world. The present atteimpt is made to supply, as far as possible, that desideratum in general literature. SCOTCH MARKETS. Wheat. I Satley. Oat,. Beans. Oatimeal. To those who have traversed the shores of that stream, and to those who intend to travel thither, it is believed than this book that there Gan be no more acceptable offering. It is fondly hoped that it will again awaken in the minds of the one the dormant beauties of the glorious scenes over which they have heretofore wandered, and fix them more firmly in their memory by connecting them with the fasts of history, or the poetry of romance ; while to the others it is trusted that it will serve as a stimulant to quicken their apprehension of coming pleasure, by exciting their reason, their imagination, and their fancy. Thus recollection of the past, and anticipation of the future, will, it is presumed, be blended by it into one harmonious whole. The pains bestowed on this production, and the time employed in its completion, entitle the Author to hope for public favour. No' hing has been left undone to secure it in a legitimate manner. The whole will be complete in a series of twenty-four Monthly Parts, forming two handsome octavo volumes. Each Part will contain two sheets of Letter-press, with beautiful Wood-engra vings from Drawings by Mr. Butler, illustrative of the Legends or the Localities. Each successive Part will also contain a double plate, forming a section of a most superior picturesque Panorama of the shores of the Rhine between the two Cities which form the termini.

This day an important Meeting of the friends of Negro Emancipation was held at the Rotunda. At one o'clock the Chair was taken by the LORD MAYOR. The SECRETARY said he had received letters from the Re corder, Mr. Litton, M. P., D. Uwick, and others, apologising for non-attendance. Mr. PYRRY moved the first resolution, which was to the effect that the abolition of slavery was a matter of right, sod regarded by them as totally distinct from party politics. Mr. O'HACIAN, Editor of the Newry Examiner, seconded the resolution in a very eloquent speech of considerable length. The resolution was unanimously adopted. Mr. ArimsraoNo proposed a resolution, regretting the con duct of those Irish Members who had voted against Sir George Strickland's motion, and expressive of gratitude to those who supported it. Mr. PETER PURCELL seconded the motion, and it was unani mously carried. Mr. JONES M'CuLtAait moved the next resolution, declar ing the necessity of joining the Scotch and English in their exertions for immediate abolition of the apprenticeship. Mr. DILLON seconded the resolution. It was adopted with out dissent. Mr. O'CONNELL, in a very able and eloquent speech, in the delivery of which he was repeatedly and loudly cheered, ex posed the fallaciousness of the arguments advanced in fa vour of the continuance of the apprenticeship system. He painted in glowing colours the sufferings of the slave, and called upon all classes and creeds to join him in his endeavours to set them free. He concluded by moving a re solution calling on the people to petition for the immediate abolition of slavery. Mr. JAMES HA UGIITON seconded the resolution. adopted. A vote of thanks to the Marquis of Sligo and the other slaveowners who have declared it to be their determination to liberate all their slaves in August was passed. It was next resolved that the petition should be present to the Commons by Mr. O'Connell, and to the Lords by the Marquis of Sligo. The Lord Mayor was then moved from the chair, and Peter Purcell, Esq., called thereto. After the usual vote of thanks the meeting separated. It was It is confidentlicalCulated that the effect of this meeting will be an unanimous movement in favour of abolition, throughout this country. Though the speeches were forcible and argumentative, the subject has been so thoroughly ex hausted, that an outline of the proceedings is as much as could be interesting to your readers. The Quakers and Uni tarians have been the principal movers in the abolition agita tion in Ireland. KILKENNY CORPORATION.—An assembly of Darien Hun dred, of the mayor and citizens of Kilkenny, was held upon Thursday, to repeal further bye-laws of the Corporation. After a lengthened discussion ; Ib was finally agreed that a Committee of the citizens should be a l ; pointed to confer with the Aldermen relative to an amicable settlornent of the diffe rences between that body and the citizens a: large. The meeting then adjourned to the 3d of May, upon wLich day it is determined not only to repeal the old laws, but proceEd with the first reading of some new and more liberal enactments re cognising the right of popular controul. Tun PROJECTED CONTROVERSY. —The final arrangements for the controversy between the Rev. Thomas Maguire, and the Rev. Mr. Gregg, upon the relative claims of the Esta blished and Catholic Churches to superiority, were yesterday entered into. The Rotunda has been procured at a cost of lot a-day for the discussion, which will take place on the last Tuesday in May, and several succeeding days. It is ru moured, however, that a meeting of the Protestant citizens is about to be held, to protest against the merits of the Esta blished Church being tried by the testimony of Mr. Gregg. Several of the evangelical organs have taken this view of the matter already. CENTRALBOARD OF REGISTRATION.-The new Society has out grown its childhood. A large number of members have joined it, and arrangements have been entered into under the direc tion of Mr. O'Connell to make it exceedingly effective. A Managing Committee has been appointed in Dublin, and Sub- Committees for each of the Circuits. The Managing Com mittee is to meet at the Corn Exchange each Monday and Wednesday, and the General Board on the first Tuesday of each month. MILITARY INQUIRY.—The military inquiry in Kilkenny has terminated ; the result is not yet known, but the Kilkenny Journal, which made the charge against the officers, expr,:sses itself satisfied with the conduct of the Court Martial. A NEW SYSTEM OF BOOK-KEEPING.—The following adver tisement appears in the Newry Examiner:—" To Book keepers.—_ anted several odd volumes of different works (including music), lent at sundry times to various persons. Any information where they may be recovered will be thank fully received at Ivy Lodge, near Newry." Mr. O'Connell will sail for Holyhead to-morrow. He will be accompanied by his son Morgan O'Connell, Esq., M. P. for Meath : Maurice, the Member for Tralee, is about to be entertained at a public dinner by his constituents, and will follow soon after. The Report of the Poor-law Committee will be brought before a meeting after Mr. O'Connell's departure. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. NEWMARKET CRAVEN MEETING-CONCLUDED. SATURDAY. Match, 200, h. ft.

The meeting on the whole was well attended, but the weather was exceedingly unfavourable, and the sport not by any means so good as the list led us to anticipate. Many of the stakes and matches went off in forfeits, several were badly contested, and not one had any serious effect on the Derby betting. The latter remark does riot apply to the Oaks, for which Unique and Barcarolle have been sent to the right about, Callisto driven back several points, and Acacia brought into great favour. The First Spring Meeting commences on Monday week, has a good list, and is likely to attract a very full attendance to witness the race for the 2,000 Guineas Stakes. (FURTHER PARTICULARS OF FRIDAY'S RACES.) Fifty Sovs. Stakes.—The favourite (Unique) took the lead at a middling pace, Barcarolle waiting on her to the bushes, where they changed places, and the latter seemed to be winning easy ; Robinson, however, making the same use of his mare that proved so suecessful on Tuesday, nursed her to the end, where he went to her, made his push al - evr strides from the post, and won cleverly by a length. Previous to the race Unique had been backed for the Oaks at. 7 to 1. The Port Stakes.—Troilus made running, followed by Caravan, the others lying up. At the ditch Caravan took up the work, and at the new ground the pace had been good enough to take the " go" out of both Lord Exeter's horses. Shortly after Scott called on Epirus and headed Caravan, and at a distance from home Rat• trap was running alongside on the waiting side, the three being now several lengths a-head of Troilus and Dardanelles. At the ropes Rat-trap quitted his companions, and won in a canter by three lengths, to the astonishment of every person on the course. It is clear either that he was never in his right form last year after the Newmarket Stakes, or that he has improved to an extent almost without precedent. We did not hear of a sixpence laid out upon him. Caravan was beaten rather more than a length from Epirus. Plate.—Scamander made the running to the new ground, where Grand Cairo was beaten off. The Shakspeare colt came at the cords, and won by a length easy. Handicap.-5 to 2 agst St-akspeare colt, 3to 1 agst Captain Rock, 3 to 1 agst Quicksilver, and 7to 2 agst Allerston.

LATEST BETTING AT MANCHESTER. CHESTER TRADE CUP. The business done this last week has been very trifling, most of the principal speculators having left for the Newmarket Craven Meeting. Magician has been most in demand, having been sup— ported at 10 to 1, Mersey has met with takers at 12 to I, and'Cliit Chat at 20 to 1. Offers have been made to lay agst. Combat since his defeat at Newmarket at 100 to 4. Lord Stafford is re ported to be on the sick list. So little has been done that they do not require any particular notice, and may be considered at the prices quoted on Monday last. CATHOLIC OATHS. TO THE RIGHT REV. THE LORD BISHOP OF EXETER. MY LORD—As the Earl of Shrewsbury has given notice that after the present recess he will call the attention of the House of Lords to the subject of the Roman Catholic oath ; and as I make no doubt but that your Lcrdship will upon that occasion repeat the observations which y,ou have already so frequently made upon the same subject ; anc: as I believe that the whole matter in controversy can be very briefly disposed of by a short reference to some general principles, which to me appear to be entirely incontrovertible, I t,,ke the liberty for these reasons of requesting your Lordship's attention to the following questions : Is not the legislative power identical with the Sovereign authority in every State? and has not this power beets con. ferred upon the legislative body in order that it may, from time to time, enact such general regulations as may, in the judgment of the Legislature itself, appear to be most con ducive to the universal happiness of the whole community, in the actual circumstances of each particular contingence ? Is it not, therefore, the paramount duty of every legislature to discharge the functions for the performance of which it has been exclusively called into existence? and does not this paramount obligation to exercise the supreme power, accord ing to its original destination, constitute the indestructible essence of the legislative character ? Is it possible to discharge this paramount duty without the most unlimited freedom of deliberation? and is not, therefore, an unbounded and sovereign discretion an essential property in the comprehension of every legislature? Must not the same obligation to legislative action which irresistibly coerces the whole body of the legislature, be also compulsory upon each individual member? and must riot each member be indefeasibly entitled to an unlimited freedom of deliberation as long as he Acts in conformity with whatever may be the actual distribution of the legislative power among the several portions of the legislature itself? Is it not, therefore, the first and greatest of the obligations imposed upon every member of the legislature to contribute, by all the means in his power, to the enactment of every law which, upon the fullest consideration, he believes to be cal culated to advance the happiness of the community; and to contribute with equal activity to the rejection or the repeal of every other? Is not every promise which cannot be carried into effect without violating an existing obligation of a higher character teterly null and void in the first moment of its creation ? Is na i ; therefore, every undertaking which professes to restrain' t h e freedom of legislati ve act i on essent i a ll y i mmoral and absurd, ,inasmuch as it cannot be eff e ct u at e d, except, f i rst, by the violator: of a higher obligation than that which is at tempted to be qyosed by the r es t r i c ti on ; or, secon dl y, by the destruction of the ulharacter in which th e res t r i ct i on pretends to be imposed and as4l,:ried ? of entering int o an y suc h an engage . Is not the impropriety ment (whatever the amoun: of that imp ro p r i ety may b e ) ex ceeded by that of abiding by ,an undertaking which is absurd and immoral in its own nature ? Is it not, therefore, the duty of the Legislature to abolish the necessity for entering into an engagement which, perhaps., cannot he assumed without some impropriety, but which cer tainly cannot be effectuated without a much greater ? Is there any other consistent course wl:ich common sense can suggest except to repeal the Emancipation Act ? Is that possible ? I have the honour to remain, Your Lordship's obedient servant, DAVID LEAHY. Devereuz Chambers, Temple. ROYAL SOCIETY OF HORTICUL- 'PURE. Nothing could surpass the beauty of the various prodne tions of the hot-house, the conservatory, and the garden, ex hibited by the members and contributors to this Society on Saturday, at the Egyptian Hall, Piccadilly. The various specimens were in fine health and vigour, and evinced the skill of those by whom they were reared. Indeed a more beauti; ful exhibition could scarcely he witnessed. Tints and colours of all sorts laid on by " Nature's own true and cunning hand," and certainly surpassing, in luxuriance am'. delicacy, anythMg the present season has yet produced.

EXECUTION IN FRANCE.—The King having re jected the petition for pardon presented by Baudelet, the con vict at Brest, who, a short time since, murdered a Sister of Charity attending the infirmary of the hulks, the wretched culprit was bremllit to the guillotine on Tuesdly list. The fatal machine was erected outside the principal gate of the Iligne, or prison of the convicts, 3,000 of whom were ranged in order to view the execution, guarded by the troops of the garrison, the marines, and two pieces of cannon loaded with grape-shot. Upwards of 10,000 pelple were assembled to witness the scene. Baudelet, although affected to tears when his counsel 'came to take leave of him, proceeded to the scaf fold with a firm step and determined countenance, atkridAl by his confessor, to whom. hon ever, he paid no attention. Wh. n he approached the ladder he smiled, and in-winted the platform seiih groat precipitation. On being bound to a plank h e cm _ plained that the straps hurt him ; but in a few minutes he c, ase 1 to exist.
